Review: Expensive - This was really good rice back in the day when I could afford it. More than doubled in price in the past 2 years.
Review: My favorite - This is my favorite rice although I don't get to buy it very often because I can't afford to. It is very spendy and the price could come down a little bit better. Value for the money I wouldn't agree with it being on point it has a nice sticky consistency but not as sticky as sticky rice of course. It smells fresh in the bag before cooked it also smells fresh and great after you have cooked it. Very clean no bugs no dirt no yucky of any sort that I've seen. It was sealed well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ good value-priced East Asian-style rice
*by L***2 on April 8, 2021*

Medium-grain rice is what you usually get in Japanese, Chinese, and Korean restaurants. Botan-brand rice is grown in California to USA quality standards. Botan is one of the cheaper brands that you will find at Asian-American grocery stores. Quality, flavor, texture is good for the price and it is fine for family meals. The cooked rice is fluffy and moderately sticky, so is easy to eat with chopsticks. 5 pounds does not last long if you eat rice regularly. Quality and flavor is essentially the same as the Nishiki-brand rice that Amazon also sells. We buy whichever one is cheaper.
